@sparky said in Blues v Brumbies:
Irish fans going to games and spending money on tickets has helped drive their national side up the World Rankings.
I'd say a large part of that is New Zealanders coaching them, New Zealanders and Australians playing for them, and an Australian setting up their administration.

@antipodean Yes, but they can afford their wages and they have been building big, state of the art coaching academies to support their work.

@MiketheSnow That's some keen pricing - especially when compared to Twickenham. Good to see.

Yes.
I was pleasantly surprised.

Stadium in France absolutely rammed for Woman’s 6N finale. Awesome to see.
Match worthy but England far too good so far, French fun to watch but not accurate enough for the game they are playing.

They won by 'only' 21 points versus 3rd best team in world. England women's rugby is in its own League, so far ahead of everyone else. Not winning the rwc was the biggest choke in rugby ever, and required an early red

Yes, it's up to others to lift their game though, which France clearly have been doing (which is the over arching point).
-
They play a very professional game. Huge forwards set the platform then the backs take advantages of holes on the back of it. It's decent watching.

Ellie Kildunne reminds me of Christian Cullen. I don’t make the comparison lightly
Can't say I see it, whenever I looked up at the game the other week she was powering through a tackler with power, rather than making them trip over their own feet.

Billy: don’t you know who I am ?
Spanish cops: ( stare back blankly, as football is their main sport )
Billy: Seriously ? What the fuck ?
Spanish cops: ( fire tasers )
